Top 10

Why vacationing at home in the summer is so great:

(Better start with the obvious) Hanging out with the family.
Meals are prepared by others and cost nothing more than "some" (I mean really little) manual labour.
Fresh air to jog in.
Soft bath towels the size of India that can wrap around my body 700 times.
Reader's Digest and National Geographic magazines are piled behind every toilet in the house.
Grass, trees, flowers are all real and the fresh veggies are ready to eat.
Birds and dragon flies gambol about the yard. (These may annoy me later on in the week).
It's hot but not sauna hot like Seoul.
There's a virgin campfire pit ready to be corrupted.
The basement fridge is devoted to beer.
